I’ve got a Disney princess mug full of coffee and Priority Inbox. Life is good.

Just paid myself. Must remember to do that more often. Super handy. #selfemployed

Briefly used my 1st ed AD&D Players Handbook (1980!) as mouse pad. Don’t know what I was thinking.

Apparently my optical mouse needs a minimum level of dust on my desk in order to function properly.

Licensing Server News

That didn’t take long, naturally.

It’s been reported that someone has figured out, and published, a way to hack some Android apps to bypass our new Android Market licensing server.

I must have one of those “send him through the xray backscatter machine” faces.

Kids are getting food from a truck for the first time. They don’t quite know what to make of it.

I should make a “DO NOT HIRE” list of students who’ve tried to pay me to finish their computer homework. Cheaters make me sad.

Make music with circles

There’s something very appealing about this. It’s hypnotic. And I love the idea, generally, of making tools for creation available to everyone.

Pulsate is a simple but addictive game-ish music maker. Just click to create expanding circles that make music when they collide.

Get Lamp documentary available

Tempted. I loved Zork. $40.

Two DVDs, with a main “GET LAMP” movie, featurettes on Infocom, Mammoth Cave, the Z-Machine, and dozens of other subjects. Over 4 hours, in total. There’s that MC Frontalot music video I did a few years ago, as well as commentary tracks, full subtitles, and a pile of easter eggs scattered around. There’s also a DVD-ROM section with many games and a few extra audio and video files.

Oh, and a coin.
